Loft problems we see in Arnold
Semi-detached houses make up 34%. A frequent find: a bathroom fan blowing into the loft and black spots on the rafters above it.
Terraces account for 16% of Arnold’s homes. Where party walls stop short in the loft, warm air, smells and pests pass between houses; we close the gaps on your side.
Many households here (40%) own outright. Lofts that were insulated back when they moved in are often thin, dusty and due a look.
Before you book, have a look for insulation that sits level with or below the tops of the joists, grey, dusty insulation that has lost its spring or boxes sitting straight on the insulation. If you’d rather not go up, we’ll look for you.

Loft problems in Arnold: questions
What share of homes in Arnold are houses?
88% are houses or bungalows; 12% are flats or maisonettes (Census 2021).
Where does new insulation go?
On the loft floor, between and over the joists, with the eaves kept clear.
Do you work outside Arnold?
Yes, across England and Wales, including Carlton, Nottingham, Hucknall, West Bridgford and Beeston. Every town we list in Nottinghamshire.
My loft insulation is decades old. Does it need replacing?
If it’s dry and clean, a top-up may be enough. If it’s dusty, damp or soiled, it should come out.
Can I keep storing things in the loft?
Yes, on a floor raised above the insulation so it isn’t squashed.
Can’t you just put new insulation on top?
Not over damp, soiled or mouldy insulation. That hides the problem. We fix the cause first.
